Learning

I thank you God for morning
For the freshness that comes
With the dew and the dawn
A new day
With a little distance from yesterday’s hurts
Received and inflicted
Known and unknown

Thankyou for renewed focus
To love and
To walk with You
To lean on You
To hear Your voice
In the course
Of my day

I may be wobbly again by tonight
But the new day will come
Again and again
Till I’ve learned to do this thing
More in your Spirit
Than in my own skin

Amen
